This one is for all my writer friends here, but especially @Graci, @NiveusLepus, and @lenaoflune .

Be careful not to make this all-too-common mistake! 😉

@MLClark @NiveusLepus @lenaoflune Last thing we need are things like " Jenny flirtingly drew her index finger down Tanya’s upper arm. “So, are you going to eat your coleslaw?”

@Graci @NiveusLepus @lenaoflune

I see no problem here. 😁

But if you give me Jenny and Stan, I will expect a good narrative reason for distracting me from the main plot with your heterosexual agenda!

@MLClark @NiveusLepus @lenaoflune Nope. No Stan. All my straights are incidental characters whose only personality point is that they are straight and/or horrible dressers.

@Graci @MLClark @lenaoflune I just let my characters work that out. That said, I have never written a sex scene. Jackie and Cerian are a couple in Space Station Z, and we get pretty close to romance with others, but thats about as “steamy” as it gets.

@NiveusLepus @Graci @MLClark Whereas I'm over here injecting steamy queer tension into just about everything 😅

@lenaoflune @Graci @MLClark *ase casts oblivious immunity* *it’s super effective *

Wha? You seem cool to me.

@NiveusLepus @lenaoflune @Graci

😂 Becca! I'm imagining you looking at the steam coming off Lena's prose, and getting all excited because now you can play tic tac toe with a buddy in the fogged up windows.

#EverybodyWins

@MLClark @lenaoflune @Graci I mean you aren’t wrong. Do you want to play?

I don’t know why there’s moaning going on, she just does that.
